Two men were arrested on burglary and larceny charges following two break-ins on Wednesday.

Tevin Marquez Thomas, 19, of 43 Thurgood Marshall Road, Spartanburg, and Monquez Levon Fowler, 24, of 155 Venus St., Inman, were charged with two counts each of grand larceny and second-degree burglary, according to online jail records. Thomas was also charged with possession of a stolen pistol and unlawful carrying of a pistol.

According to an incident report, officers responded to a burglary on Winfield Drive. A neighbor told police that a small, light-colored SUV was seen backed up under the carport and that a man kicked in the back door.

Two flatscreen TVs, a video game system and other electronics were taken from the home, the report states.

Another burglary was reported on Talmadge Drive. The resident told police that a microwave, camera, air rifle and a TV were missing from the home, the incident report states.

Later on Wednesday, police stopped a vehicle matching the description given by the witness on South Pine Street, Capt. Art Littlejohn said in a written statement. The Officers located items from the burglaries in the vehicle, Littlejohn said.

Thomas and Fowler remained at the Spartanburg County Detention Facility Thursday. Thomas' bond was set at $35,000; Fowler's was $30,000.
